GenVibe's Great Thread of CL Finds

Hi GenVibers:
I am starting this thread for everyone to post right here CL and other online classified ads that should be of interest to fellow GenVibers. That means only Vibes and stuff that fits the Vibes are allowed. "For sale by owner ads" are preferred.
Keeping all posts in one thread keeps the forum uncluttered and it makes it easier to track the posts.

I suspect that wheels and tires will be very popular items. Here is a cross reference for the Pontiac Vibe and other cars:

Let's get to 100 asap, then keep on counting.

To start, here is a Vibe in flashy Fusion orange:

Interesting to see the price comparisons and how the older Vibes are holding up. Going into summer this would be a great time to find a 2nd set of rims for snow tires to get ready for next winter

Indeed! I just bought a set of MSW alloys with winter tires for a heck of a price. I am glad the thread is catching on for the benefit of everyone.

What's the thing with the doorhandles in Arkansas, I wonder?

That looks like a great deal. If it were in my area, I'd be tempted to pick it up as a spare.
When they say "the airbag will need servicing", maybe they mean that the airbag recall hasn't been done to the vehicle yet

Yes, it WAS a great deal:

It must have sold in a few hours. This is very much like I bought mine.

Just came across this while car shopping. Not interested because it is an automatic and "salvage". But mileage and price are low so might be of interest to someone who knows how to fix or looking for parts in Indianapolis area.

Looks like this poor Vibe was front-end wrecked. A HUGE gap between the drivers side fender & door looks terrible AND the front wheel looks like it got beat up pretty good. I hate it when people try to do quick fixes just to unload a car. This still may need quite a bit of work. PASS on it!!!

Jeebus that gap is like the Marianas Trench. Terrible body work, cheaply done.

You know, it still could be a real bargain. Almost 10 years ago we bought a Ford Contour for my wife. The hood was misaligned, there was color mismatch at some panels and other evidence of a minor accident. In fact the hood is still misaligned, but much less so because of my tweaking it, the colors are still mismatched but it has been the cheapest transportation we ever had for her usage, even if you place the resale value at $0.00.

If it is mechanically good and drives straight, it is a buy. At a GenVibe meet it could earn the "zombie of the year" award. :mrgreen:
